Leaflet modification techniques during TAVI

19 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026

This session explores leaflet modification techniques during TAVI, focusing on complex valve-in-valve procedures supported by artificial intelligence-powered planning and advanced imaging. Case discussions cover challenges such as low valve-to-coronary distances, bi-leaflet obstruction, and strategies to maintain coronary flow and hemodynamic stability.

Pulmonary valve: the next frontier in adult structural interventions

19 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026

This session highlights the evolving role of the pulmonary valve in adult structural interventions. It reviews complex transcatheter pulmonary valve replacement (TPVR) cases, strategies for managing challenging right ventricular outflow tract anatomies, and percutaneous solutions for pulmonary artery stenosis and related complications.
